Spokane Veterans Home residents with COVID-19 will be transferred to VA Medical Center

The Spokane Veterans Home confirmed nine new cases of coronavirus among residents on Thursday and announced all of those patients will soon be transferred to Mann-Grandstaff VA Medical Center.

Thirty-four veterans and 13 staff members at the Spokane Veterans Home have tested positive for the virus, according to the Washington State Department of Veterans Affairs (WSDVA).

Two veterans have died of coronavirus and at least three have been hospitalized since the outbreak began.

All residents who have coronavirus will now be transferred to the VA Medical Center's COVID-19 Unit, which was recently prepared to handle a surge in positive cases among veterans in the area.
